Abstract
A method and insulation monitoring arrangement for insulation monitoring of an electric installation operated using a supply direct voltage and has a first insulation resistance between the positive active conductor and ground and a second insulation resistance between the negative active conductor and ground as well as a functional grounding between the negative active conductor and ground by a ground resistance. The method involves measuring a ground current, which flows in the path of the functional grounding, by means of a DC measuring device; measuring the supply direct voltage by means of a voltage measuring device; computing the first insulation resistance from the supply direct voltage divided by the ground current by means of a computing unit; the condition is valid during operation of the electric installation that the second insulation resistance being at least 100 times greater than the ground resistance.
